The problem I have convincing people is they just dont believe the claims and palm it off as sorcery. Locally, Brisbane Aust. they all bang on about Bike Milk which just does not even come close to in performance. Its a tough gig pushing the barrow.

Well, you are a saint for doing the hard work and it is very appreciated.
Now go sell that snake oil ;)
Seriously, we fight this stigma a lot. This year I'll start setting up a tent at CX venues and in the spring perhaps some major road races where we can apply the lube and give away some samples. NFS reputation is building slowly and used well by riders who talk with their feet. This is not a bad thing, hard on the biz but we dig it.

I was thinking of doing this as Im not racing anything for the foreseeable future. I was even going plant myself on the busiest commuter route and supply free applications to anyone who cared to stop and ask.

The lovely wife bought some for me as a gift. Thanks for the sample bottle! I'll make sure it's put to good use.
It smells so much better than the Pro Link Gold I've been using. It'll be nice to lube up the chain and not have to banish the bike somewhere out of smell range afterward.
Wasn't sure which thread this belonged in 'Ride reports', 'Exotic handbuilts in the wild', or here...
Rolling (silently) along Beach Drive on Saturday with the lady, making a joke about our bikes being the only ones on the road that morning not in desperate need of chain lube. Mere minutes later, the man himself passes us going the other direction! Before I could think to yell , 'we love NFS!' you were gone, well thanks anyway, TT!

Local club has a lube product sponsor and their facebooks page had a thing about cleaning up the chain and cluster using the lube product sponsor's cleaning product and I was going to reply with a picture - a bottle of NFS and a cotton cloth next to my bike with some caption like "no need..." but I thought it would be in bad form.
Applied the special sauce to a buddy's bike last weekend and it created glorious silence.... Another convert.
Nice work.
Well, i shipped a brick of NFS to my team in Geneve and they all used it for thr Haute Route which saw some of the most brutal weather Europe has ever seen so early in the year. Pouring cats and dogs and 0c at the tops of Cols....ouch. NFS performed perfectly.

whoa
just finished my first bottle of what was some sort of beta stuff
maybe ~8k mi with it on all the bikes
as good as i need it to be
that's for sure
i want more josh. nfs.com?
Awesome. NIXFRIXSHUN.COM
ALL beta testers get the big @ss NFS hookup. PM me for fresh details.
FWIIW that beta stuff was about 90% as good as the final product. The kicker is that it was a green product and in non-toxic and safe for landfill disposal. BUT we ain't a 90% crowd are we?

Anyone in the Boston area stocking NFS yet? Or is the closest "dealer" still IF in NH?
Little piece in Strickland's "The Selection" column in November issue of Bicycling on NFS - not sure if you heard or saw it.
